WaPo is eliminating all local columns, killing the entire social issues team and getting rid of half its education reporters, according to former Postie Gene Meyer. What a loss. eugenelmeyer.com/2023/12/13/i...

Ugh! This is a lot of the stuff subscribers like me want

"Behind Every Great Newspaper..." is a smaller, crappy one biding its time. My cancelled annual subscription countdown is now at T minus 266 days, and the Post has given me few reasons to change my mind.

WTH? Absolutely nuts. While far from perfect WaPo has been a model of local reporting, & daily reminder of what my own city had (I still sub local): reliable source of reporting and informed opinion so I know what's going on in my community. Losing the education reporters will be a national blow.
